Pictures
And now that I'm home, I can actually post pictures. (Left the cable for the camera at home... darned non-USB interfaces.)

Most of it's pretty gun-centric, though I won't knock the books or manga (or the pictures of Grandpa and Grandma). My brother gets an E for effort - he got me a copy of Alpha Protocol (which was on sale the day before for $7.50 on Steam), a USB keychain charm (literally the same model that was already on my keychain, except twice the memory... I gave him my old 4 GB model), and a zombie comic anthology (appropriate - I gave him Dead Rising 2). The other brother's more prosaic gift of a shirt and jeans will probably prove more practical.

I'm resisting the temptation to name it...
The gun's seen some love, to be sure. Plenty of dinks and scratches in the finish. But as near as I can tell, it looks well-maintained. The grips are a really nice touch. Dad ended up carving himself a new set of grips for his own Buck Mark, and a couple of his friends saw them and asked for a set, so he's had a little practice before he got around to mine. I'll need to get this thing out to the range and see how it shoots - Kim du Toit had a lot of praise for a particular gun range nearby in Plano, so I think I'll try to sneak out there this weekend and fire off some of that ammunition.
